sigtech Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Hello I hope this is the right place for this question.With regard to the brake rigging that is supplied by Bachmann for the modeller to fit.The items concerned are the BR Mk1 horse box as supplied byTMC, the BR MK1 CCT, and the recent BR (ex SR ) PMV .First is there a right way up to mount the rigging??All have the same fittings - that clip into small holes in the rear of the brake blocks - the question is do they fit ABOVE the axles? i.e. between them and the vehicle floor, or do they go BELOW the axles? I have looked through several articles on here, but have not yet found a definitive answer!I hope someone can enlighten me...Thank you. SIGTECH (Steve).

sigtech Posted January 28, 2016 Author Share Posted January 28, 2016 Hello Phil, thanks for the "heads-up on the PMV'S, still unsure about the other two - I've seen the cattle truck model with the rigging between the wagon floor and the axles somewhere.... don't know if this is correct? but I assume that as both the cattle truck and CCT are BR Mk1 vehicles they would be constructed the same....or not!! Still very confused.. Regards SIGTECH(Steve). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sigtech Posted January 28, 2016 Author Share Posted January 28, 2016 Thank You Phil, it looks like I need to reposition the brake rigging on both my MK1 cattle wagon and the CCT, as I've fitted it above the axles on them...

Needless to say Bacchy's model is a little crude - post 150 in http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/26839-timcs-7mm-br-blue-workbench-jltrt-br-cct/page-6?&is probably nearer the real thing Cheers Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
